So me being me and always needing to look ahead I'm thinking of a new series come January and think it will come down to one of these listing the first book in the series.
Promise of Blood
The Curse of the Mistwraith
Empire in Black and Gold
The Steel Remains
Low Town
Not necessarily in that order.

LOL. The new series in the same world is due out in March so I'll definitely squeeze it in between then.

I picked up the first and second Powder Mage books recently, got then on a nice sale :) I can't guarantee I can wait until January to read them though!
Is anyone else going to read The Blood Mirror by Brent Weeks when it comes out end of October? Keen to buddy read if anyone else is planning to read it.

Try checking out some of the other discussions to see if there's a book on your list. You can also look at the group bookshelf to see what is coming up. :)

My October will be a bit crazy, but I would like to read this one.

Angela wrote: "Awesome Tracey. Let's touch base closer to release!":) I'm super excited for Lightbringer 4!
Ah, I think I will join in as well! Almost done with the second, September I will devour the third and I will be read for the fourth! This series is such a masterpiece!
Me too. I love it so much. There's just something about Brent Weeks writing that as a reader I adore.
Excellent that there will be a couple of us. Shall I just start a thread for November, seeing as it's out so late in October?

I am totally on board! Plus November allows for some breathing room to be ready and prepared! I really want to savor Lightbringer 3...

Done and made a discussion for Blood Mirror as well.

So, Promise of Blood - is there or isn't there a buddy read set up for that series now in January..? Bit puzzled here.

If you're in for it I'll set it up. There was never any confirmation anybody wanted to read any of those series beyond Jenna willing me to read one of her favorites. :)

I've got Promise of Blood on the looks good! It'll be the end of next month by the time I'll be able to pick it up though.

We weren't looking until Jan/Feb to do all three books so you're good.

I'm not looking to do any book in particular right now, but if anyone wants to compare books and sees one on my to-read list they want to read I'm up for it!

That's a great idea for people who have open schedules (not Scott, our other mod with the 6 month reading schedule)!
You can also check out the bookshelf for any upcoming reads you are interested in. I will compare our books, but I'm not up for any new buddy reads for the time being.

Last time I checked yours is books out just as long. :p
BTW if you think about it about of us are booked out over a year just doing Malazan with the one book per month structure we're doing.

Only my September is worse than yours. You are in fact worse in Nov and Dec but then I have Powder Mage already booked for next year. I'll call it a tie.

I've just read it last month. It was good! If you get to the next one Magic Study, I definitely will!

Maybe in a week or two?
My September and October are booked with buddy reads. If you want to consider towards the end of the year perhaps I'd join.
Sorry Scott. I'll probably be starting sooner, more likely Monday or Tuesday. maybe another time we can buddy one?
Sounds interesting! But being in college I'd be really slow reading it. will already be reading two other books.

I haven't read that one, but looking at the description I would say no. That one looks more military sci-fi and Leviathan Wakes is more political, conspiracy.
